Question
A 3-year-old boy is experiencing symptoms of sore throat, severe cough, fever, and lack of energy, tonsillitis. How should treatment be approached?
Answer
In treating children’s tonsillitis and fever, appropriate anti-inflammatory medication should be administered based on the symptoms. Local treatments can include medication sprays or laser therapy. If the primary symptom is throat pain, painkillers may be considered. Oral fever-reducing medication can be given if the fever persists. If the child frequently experiences such conditions, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrent episodes. During treatment, attention should be paid to diet and hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
